4th Annual Peterborough Rucksack March to Remember
Saturday, October 25, 2025 8:00am - 4:00pm
Nichols Oval , 725 Armour Rd., Peterborough
The Rucksack March for Remembrance was established to bring people from the community together with one mission in mind. This mission is to raise awareness and funding for the many Canadian militaries and first responder families who are in the midst of their own service-related battles.
Every year, we lose too many dedicated soldiers, officers, firefighters and paramedics to illness, injury and suicide. The struggle continues to impact families and communities nationwide, and we wanted to do our part to serve those who need our help the most.
As Veterans and First Responders, we created an event that would bring people from all walks of life together in support of Wounded Warriors Canada. Our guest speaker for the 4th Annual Peterborough Rucksack March for Remembrance is Emily Zufelt! We're excited to have Emily share her experiences throughout her roles as a First Responder, podcast host - What's Your Twenty? - and as a Trauma-Informed & Resiliency Certified Coach.
Register today and be a part of this great event! Registration: www.Ruck4rem.ca
